Personally, if I was doing the list, Drawn Together would have been on there, as well as South Park. Granted South Park isn't new, but this year's episodes just shined brighter than they ever have. And, personally for me, Drawn Together is my new favorite show at the moment (Next to Lost, WHICH COMES ON TONIGHT! HEEHEE!). Drawn Together... sure, it's crude, and infact, does a lot of the stupid fart and poop jokes I ussually hate... but the way they do the show just... I'm able to tolerate it. And they blend the different animated styles together so well without them mixing. Especially spanky ham <3

Also, whoever said I,Robot: hell yes. that movie was friggen AMAZING.

And the incredibles of course.

Oh, and the spongebob movie. hell friggen YES.

So in conclusion um... Drawn Together is my favorite thing next to the incredibles, to come out in 2004 animation wise. I can't wait for next season.

Ah, I forgot about that DVD. In that case, replace my last choice with the Brother Bear DVD (I loved that commentary by Rutt and Tuke).

As for Twice, I really liked that movie. It was a nice change for the fab 5 into CG, and I think Disney accomplished it rather nicely. Sure it would have been nice to have one story instead of several mini-stories, but I think the animation for all but one of the characters (Goofy) was done perfectly.

I must admit to kinda linking the Huey, Dewey and Louie section, but Santa's Workshop really needed to be bigger than the "backroom" they ended up with (check the storyboards for this sequence to see the expansive look it would have had in hand-drawn animation).

Goofy was the least of the animation problems for me. Pluto worked surprisingly well, but it was Mickey and Minnie, with their stiff movements, no squash and streach and scary, soulless, shiny (!) eyes that appauled me on this one. Sorry, but check out the Philharmagic show at the park to see how Mickey CAN work in CGI.

I'm glad The Simpsons Movie got an honerable mention. While at first glance it might not seem to be as good as it would have been ten years (or more) ago, it improves immensely on repeat viewings. I got the dvd for Christmas and have already watched it twice (listened to the Matt Groening et al commentary the second time. Interestingly, at certain points they pause the movie to elaborate on what they're discussing so the commentary is actually longer than the film itself, the first time I've ever seen that happen). However, I'm not sure I would want to see a sequel. As it is, there's a chance the film may go down as a comedy classic (as the South Park movie seems to have done) so I think they should leave it at that cause there's no way they could ever top it (or I would be exremely surprised if they did).

I watched the first episode of the new post-movie season to see if the writing had improved since then and was, sadly, disappointed yet again. The show hasn't been good for at least the past five seasons and I'm left wondering why they haven't packed it in yet.

I like that Surf's Up and Meet the Robinsons were included in the '2007 On The Big Screen: The Theatrical Toon Review' section of the piece. It seems to me that many critics and voters have forgotten and/or underrated those two films during this awards season.
